Fly Camping in Tanzania
Fly camping in Tanzania is one of the most intimate and adventurous ways to experience the African wilderness. Unlike permanent lodges or luxury tented camps, fly camps are lightweight, mobile setups that bring you closer to nature than ever before. In Tanzania, these camps are typically set up in remote areas of the Serengeti — far away from other travelers, under a sky full of stars.
It’s the perfect experience for adventurous travelers who want to go “off the beaten track” and truly immerse themselves in the sights and sounds of the bush.
